In a fracking context the object that will ultimately block a passage in an isolation device is introduced into the zone with the bottom hole assembly. The object is not released until the guns fire to create a pressure spike in the borehole that triggers the object retaining device to release the object. The retaining device is placed in close proximity to the isolation device and its setting tool to allow a larger object and passage in the isolation device to be used. If the guns misfire, the object is not released and comes out with the guns. The replacement guns can be pumped in because the passage in the isolation device has stayed open during the misfire. Direct and indirect object release in response to pressure created from the firing of the guns is contemplated.

A recoverable data acquisition system includes at least a portion of at least one sensor be positionable within a tubular of a completion system, the at least a portion being recoverable therefrom and a retainer movably disposed at the tubular between at least a first position and a second position, a cavity being defined between the tubular and the retainer when the retainer is in the first position, the at least a portion of the at least one sensor being removable from the cavity in response to movement of the retainer from the first position to the second position.

Recoverable data acquisition system and method of sensing at least one parameter of a subterranean bore

A monitoring tool, including an obstructor portion operatively arranged to impede fluid flow past the monitoring tool when the obstructor is engaged with a corresponding seat member. A disintegrable portion is included formed from a material operatively arranged to disintegrate upon exposure to a selected fluid. A gauge is coupled with the obstructor portion and the disintegrable portion. The gauge is operatively arranged to monitor one or more parameters and released from the obstructor portion when the disintegrable portion is disintegrated by the selected fluid. A method of monitoring one or more parameters is also included.
